Description

To avoid the use of an extra VM for the virtual router we implement configdrive for userdata, metadata & password.
The configdrive ISO is created on the secondary store and the KVM & VMware plugins are adapted to accept the configdrive ISO as second cdrom.
Is applicable for isolated, VPC and shared networks.
